We are devolving rather than evolving. Most people alive today are less capable than their grandparents and their great grand parents. If this continues we may see descendants with tails swinging in the trees. Well that may be a slight exaggeration.
Intelligence is provided to us over the internet. Intelligence is good. It levels the playing field fo everyone. Well there too, I may be exaggerating.
Let’s turn the subject to wisdom. Wisdom begins with fear. It takes a few years of abuse to gather a sufficient amount.
Lately abuse has achieved a poor reputation, but I am convinced that public schools frequently pollute young minds. GIGO (garbage in garbage out).
Historically, parents passed their wisdom to youngsters at family meals. Families seem to be trending away from this ritual. My grandchildren eat when they choose. They eat only what they want. Can you see the devolution happening yet. Trust me... wisdom is becoming scarce.
So socially we are flattening the curve. We are all becoming average.
Heredity may be the one remaining factor that produces extraordinary people. Heredity is something we don’t choose. If you are special... thank your ancestors.
Here is today’s beauty.
